moving expenses

[upstatehse]

I purchased an RV in Arizona for $12,900 in 2018. I then paid rental fees on the lot. I finally sold my home in Ithaca NY in 2020 and moved to Arizona in March of 2020. Can I deduct the purchase and lot rent as moving expenses on my 2020 tax return?

The moving expenses deduction was suspended for tax years 2018-2025.  The deduction is only available to active duty military moving due to military orders. 

Here is a link with more information. 

If you were still able to deduct, only the expenses for lodging during the travel/move would be eligible.  

Of note, the RV is a second home and interest paid on the loan could be an itemized deduction for mortgage interest.
